What will I learn?
This course provides a straightforward, hands-on guide to designing and fine-tuning a contemporary 1.6 L spark-ignition engine. You'll gain expertise in thermodynamic cycles, actual versus ideal performance, turbo boosting, knock thresholds, brake specific fuel consumption, and overall efficiency. Discover how to determine compression ratios, valve timing, exhaust gas recirculation, and control methods, transforming cycle simulations into practical goals, testing protocols, and a clear implementation plan.
